Russian arms maker Rostec claims to have developed the first underwater drone to be armed with an assault rifle.  Rostec, has introduced an underwater drone capable of carrying explosives and small arms.

“The drone is fitted with an underwater assault rifle. It has undergone sea trials,” Rostec, told Sputnik News at the International Military Technical Forum “Army 2018.”

“Full-fledged trials will begin closer to the start of winter. It is a unique project since no one has so far fitted [an underwater drone] with small arms. Moreover, very few [countries] in the world have underwater automatic small arms.”
